Rovers have confirmed that the 32-year-old has been arrested as the National Crime Agency investigate fresh spot-fixing claims following an undercover newspaper sting.

The NCA is examining evidence provided by the Sun on Sunday, who filmed former Nigeria and Portsmouth defender Sam Sodje claiming he received £70 000 for getting himself sent off in a League One fixture last season.

Sodje was shown a red card after he repeatedly punched Oldham’s Jose Baxter in the groin, and he admitted receiving a substantial reward to the undercover reporter. — Sky Sports.
